Athletics and Rugby participants to benefit from $2.5 Million revitalisation of CV Kelly Park

Outdated amenities at CV Kelly Park in Girraween, located 30 km west of central Sydney, are set to be replaced via $2.5 million from the NSW Government – benefitting Girraween Athletics Club, Girraween Little Athletics Club and the All Saints Toongabbie Tigers Rugby League Club.

The new building will break down barriers to female participation by providing gender-inclusive and accessible facilities and further add to the park's role as a sporting hub for the community with the addition of a multi-purpose meeting space.

The NSW Government's investment in new, gender-inclusive changerooms and accessible toilets and showers will ensure that all members of the local grassroots sporting community will be able to play and train in an inclusive environment.

NSW Minister for Sport Steve Kamper advised ""CV Kelly Park already serves many members of the community of all ages.

"Upgrading the facilities, will ensure that CV Kelly Park reaches its full potential, supporting the growth of community sport, and providing long-term benefit to the many sporting groups that use the ground."

Tim Moggridge, Secretary, All Saints Toongabbie Tigers JRLFC added "All Saints Toongabbie Tigers is thrilled with the $2.5 million investment from Dr Hugh McDermott, on behalf of the NSW Labor Government, Cumberland Council and with support from the Parramatta Eels.

"This upgrade to CV Kelly Park is a game-changer for our club and the wider community - thank you to all involved."

Karen Farrugia, President, Girraween Little Athletics shared "Girraween Little Athletics is deeply grateful for the NSW Government's support to upgrade CV Kelly Park, helping us provide a safer, more inclusive space for young athletes, families, and volunteers.

"This funding will transform CV Kelly Park into a more accessible and functional venue, strengthening our ability to deliver grassroots sport and foster community pride."
